Incognito mode

What is Incognito mode?

Incognito mode allows you to keep your searches and visited sites private. In Incognito mode, Yandex.Browser does not save passwords you enter, autofill data, search queries, browsing history or addresses of pages you visited. All changes to settings, downloaded files, and bookmarks are saved.

Attention. Incognito mode does not make you invisible. For example, if you log in on a social network, you will be seen as online. It also does not protect your computer against viruses.

Turning Incognito mode on and off

Use one of these methods to open a window in Incognito mode:

Click → Incognito mode.

When you're on the page, open the context menu and select Open link in Incognito mode.

Is Turbo mode turned on in Incognito mode?

By default, Turbo mode turns on automatically if the download speed is less than 128 Kbit/s. When this happens, the Turbo icon appears. When the speed reaches 512 Kbit/s or higher, Turbo mode is deactivated and the icon disappears.
